Discuss the part that money plays in our lives
Money plays an important part in our lives. In several aspects, it is the most important thing in life. It is therefore much
sought after.
Without money we could not buy our food, clothes and all the other things that we need to live comfortably. We require
money to travel, to buy medicine when we are ill and also to pay for the services rendered to us by others. In truth,
money is almost indispensable to our survival. Most of our activities are therefore directed towards earning as much
money as possible.
We use money not only to meet the basic needs of life but also to pay for our own advancement. We use it for education
which helps us to live a better life. Thousands of students are unable to attend school or continue their studies for want of
money. Lack of money also causes great hardship and sorrow in hundreds of families. Thousands of people are dying
everyday throughout the world because they are not able to pay their doctors fee or because they cannot buy nutritious
food.
As money is so important, many crimes are committed everyday in all parts or the world to gain possession of it. Some
are driven by hunger and desperation to steal, rob, and even kill to get at least what they require to keep body and soul
together. Others commit the most serious crimes out of sheer greed for money. Such people cause much trouble and
unpleasantness in society, and to bring them to justice, large sums of money are spent by every government.
Today, millions of dollars are being spent by the various governments in the world for the betterment of the people.
Numerous schools and hospitals are being built, and hundreds of acres or land are being cultivated to produce more food
for the growing population of the world. As a result, the world is gradually becoming a better place to live in.
At the same time, however, much money is being wasted in producing deadly weapons of war. Countries which have
more money than the others have become more powerful by strengthening their armed forces. This has led to rivalries
among the powerful nations, and several parts of the world are in turmoil. All this shows what an important part money
plays in human affairs.
Bài dịch
Tiền giữ vai trò quan trọng trong đời sống chúng ta. Trên một vài phương diện nào đó, tiền là quan trọng nhất trong cuộc
sống. Vì vậy người ta chạy theo tiền.
Không có tiền chúng ra không thể mua thực phẩm, áo quần và tất cả những vật dụng cần thiết cho một cuộc sống tiện
nghi. Chúng ta cần tiền để đi lại mua thuốc khi đau ốm và trả cho những dịch vụ mà người khác làm cho chúng ta. Nói
cho đúng, tiền hầu như không thể thiếu với sự tồn tại của chúng ta. Phần lớn các hoạt động của chúng ta vì thế hướng tới
việc kiếm ra càng nhiều tiền càng tốt.
